INSTALLATION

• After removing the packaging, make sure the device is integer; if in doubt, do not use it and contact professionally qualified personnel. The packaging elements (plastic bags, expanded polystyrene, nails, etc.) must not be left within reach of children as they are potential sources of danger; dispose of them according to the local regulations.
• Before connecting the appliance, check that the voltage shown on the data plate correspond to that of the electrical network, and that the socket is equipped with an effective earth connection. Make sure that no other high-absorption appliances are connected to the same power line, to avoid overloads and fire risks. In the event of incompatibility between the socket and the plug of the appliance, have the socket replaced with another of a suitable type by professionally qualified personnel, who will ensure that the cable section of the socket is suitable for the power absorbed by the appliance. In general, the use of adapters and / or extensions is not recommended; if their use is essential, they must comply with current safety standards and their current capacity (Ampères) must not be less than the maximum of the appliance.
• Place the appliance on a flat and stable floor, away from other heating sources, from flammable materials (curtains, upholstery, etc.), from flammable gases or explosive materials (spray cans) and from materials that can deform with the heat. Check that the free space is 120cm from the front and 50cm to the sides and back.
• The support surface must be stable, wide (shelves are excluded), not sloping (as the appliance could overturn), and free from roughness for the safety switch located in the base to work correctly: this switch interrupts operation in the event of the stove overturning.
• Make sure that the cable is correctly positioned and that it is not in contact with hot parts or sharp edges, nor wrapped around the appliance or twisted on itself and does not get entangled, in order to prevent the appliance from falling. Make sure you cannot trip over it to avoid accidental falls or personal injury. Also check that the cord is not under carpets.
• In the event of a breakdown or malfunction, turn off the appliance and have it checked by professionally qualified personnel; service carried out by unqualified personnel can be dangerous and will void the warranty.
